The vehicle tested was one of 20 demonstration prototypes, and I found it very difficult to find fault on any major point. This latest recruit to the ranks of the world's small cars was planned back in 1945 when Saab started looking round for a profitable sideline to supplement their normal output of jet-propelled aircraft.

When Saaby wrote 'continue' last week it seemed a bizarre statement given that the line has indeed stopped some time ago and doesn't look like starting again. Perhaps everyone has a different perception of time to me?

It's not worth £30 right now.
